Saniflo SaniACCESS3 Macerating Upflush Toilet

If you’re looking for a durable and reliable upflush toilet, the Saniaccess 3 may be just the model you want. In-stock and designed to ship the same day you order it, this toilet is perfect for a full bathroom addition virtually any place you want to put it. Because the system pumps vertically, up to 15 feet, and is designed to connect a toilet, sink, shower, or bathtub, it’s the ideal whole-home system. As if that weren’t enough, it’s easy to install on your own and won’t require the assistance of a professional plumber.

This package includes the Saniaccess 3 macerating pump, a tank, bowl, and free soft-close toilet seat. Bowl sizes include a standard bowl or an elongated, ADA-compliant bowl. If you’d like to hide the unit behind a wall, you can purchase an optional extension kit which will allow you to do so. If you have a hard-water problem in your home, this unit also provides for descaler use, which will clean and remove hard water deposits in the macerator, keeping your Saniaccess 3 working well for years to come.

The SaniACCESS3 is a system that is used to install a complete bathroom up to 15 feet below the sewer line, or even up to 150 feet away from a soil stack. It can handle the effluent from a toilet, sink, bathtub and shower.

The SaniACCESS3 is simplicity itself to install; there are just four connections.

The macerator/pump is connected to the spigot of a horizontal rear discharge toilet.

The toilet tank is connected to the water supply.

The macerator/pump is connected to the small diameter discharge pipe work.

The macerator/pump is connected to the electrical supply.

Powerful Pumping Action

This is the ideal unit for installing a bathroom in a basement, guest home or other areas of your property not connected to your main sewer line. Our macerating upflush toilet is able to pump effluent upward to 15 feet and/or 150 feet horizontally (with gravity fall).

Easy Installation

This toilet is easy to install with only four connections are necessary to install the system: 1) the macerator/pump connects to the spigot of a horizontal rear discharge toilet 2) the toilet tank is connected to the water supply 3) the macerator/pump connects to the PVC discharge pipe and 4) the macerator/pump connects to its power supply.

Connect the Entire Bathroom

This toilet eliminates the need to have a separate effluent pump for each water based device in the bathroom. The SaniACCESS3 discharges gray water from a sink, a bathtub, a shower, a urinal and other sanitary fixtures with only minimal modifications to the connections.

Pressure Chamber Operated

When water flows into the unit's pressure chamber, a switch is activated that starts up the motor, which in turn drives the impeller and the spindle mounted macerator blades. The blades rotate at 3600 rpm and the centrifugal force sends the reduced solids through a grill towards the impeller pump creating a highly efficient process.

The inside of the SaniACCESS3 comprises of a pressure chamber, which starts and stops the unit, and the motor, which drives the stainless steel macerator blades and the pump.

When the flush is activated, the water flowing into the SaniACCESS3 activates a micro switch in the pressure chamber, which in turn starts the motor. The motor is sealed for life in an oil filled enclosure. A common spindle/shaft drives the impeller and the macerator blades. The moving parts therefore are kept to an absolute minimum. Water and organic waste matter enter the chamber and are reduced to slurry as the macerator blades rotate at 3600 RPM. The centrifugal force causes the reduced solids to be ejected through a grill into the container where it is picked up by the impeller pump mounted beneath the motor. The unit pumps the effluent upward to 15 feet and/or 150 feet horizontally (with gravity fall). Once the water level in the container goes down, the micro switch deactivates the unit until the flush is activated again. A normal operating cycle for SaniACCESS3 takes about 10 - 15 seconds depending upon the discharge pipe run configuration; power consumption is therefore minimal.

In addition to the toilet waste, the SaniACCESS3 will also discharge gray water from a variety of other sanitary fixtures such as: a sink, a bathtub, a shower and a urinal. When adding a bathtub or shower, a base will have to be constructed. This base should be made out of a 2" x 6" (minimum) or 2" x 8" (recommended) on edge, to allow for the installation of a P-trap and the required 1/4"per foot gravity flow towards the pump unit.

The waste water from other sanitary fixtures is discharged into the SaniACCESS3 via two 2-inch inlets on either side of the housing. Either one or both inlets can be used as required. The discharge elbow on top of the SaniACCESS3 can be turned either to the left, to the right, or towards the back, depending on the discharge installation. A non-return valve, which comes already assembled on the discharge elbow, prevents back flow into the unit.

This unit has been designed with a vent connection on the lid. All plumbing codes require connection to a vent system. Please note that the vent system should be a two-way air vent. The use of mechanical vents, air admittance valves or similar devices are not permitted as these are considered one-way air vent systems. It is also highly recommended for the macerator/pump to be connected to a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) circuit.

The design of this model consists of vibration absorbers which enable the reduction of operating sound by reducing the transmitted sounds from any location where such resonance transmission could occur. This new design reduces the operating sound of this pump by 10dB.

The SaniACCESS3 unit must be connected to our rear discharge toilet. This system uses much less water than a regular toilet.
